Arsenal v Monaco. 11th December. 20:00

[Marc Overmars]

One step closer to a top 8 finish with 3 points here.

Bit of talk that Tierney could start which I wouldn’t be opposed to at all. Our full back options are very thin on the ground right now.

2-0

[HCZ_Reborn]

The amount of defensive injuries i hear reported is very disturbing. White and Tomiyasu? Yes of course one is in post surgical recovery, the other as much as he’s a decent player is an injury liability and needs to be junked.

But on top of that Calafiori, Timber and Gabby Maga still out.

Makes you wonder what we are doing in training to these players

Yup, sounds like our training routines are to intense....lets not forget that Merino got injured for a month before he could even make his debut, also in training.

I am not surprised at this as it sounds like something Arteta would insist on with his funny "Macho" vibes.

Merino was a freak accident, Gabriel fell on top of him or something, though that doesn't rule out it being due to their training too hard

that said we lost almost no-one last year to injury

[Mac76]

anyway 0-3 Balogun hatter

[HCZ_Reborn]

Hmm 0-6 Henry and Adebayor hat tricks

[IBK]

anyway 0-3 Balogun hatter

He's injured I think.

Yes - something is going wrong for sure.

Some stats here about injuries compared with other clubs.

[WMUG]

So we are the most affected club in the title hunt in terms of days lost to injuries.

I'd have liked to see some analysis on player importance by them factoring in something like how likely it is that player would play if all players were injury free, but that's probably not particularly calculable.
